Dude your Way OFFFFFFFFF As much as i hate Scot he was no where near as bad as Donahue was (at least he was in the bay at headquarters most of the time) Check some of Terry's Greatest Hits 01-05 was his tenure:

01 Draft 1st Rd:-Andre Carter (Never Lived up to his potential. Showed flashes here & there) I'll give him a C+
2nd Round: Jamie Winborn (a fan fav, but what about Matt Light?? or Shaun Rogers?) BUST
3rd Rd: Kevin Barlow(WOW lol over LT was the best RB to come out of this class. We could've had LaMont Jordan in the 2nd) BUST

Look at that fabulous Job he did in 02? Scot never threw up a pooper like that

The majority of players star players on our team where scouted by Scot & picked by him. Where we are now is because of him for the most part. There would be no PATRICK WILLIS if it weren't for him. He stood high on Gore to and said we should take a chance on him. Yes he wet the bed a little here & there, but for the most part I wouldn't throw him under the bus.

IN NO WAY DOES HE COME CLOSE TO DONAHUE. Donahue f**ked us big time and got us into the mess were finally getting out of.

I was kind of on the Fence with McCough as GM, he definitely had more misses than hits. But the selections of Balmer and Coffee is just too much. Nobody like the picks, but we all gave them the benefit of the doubt since they are 9ers. Now their busts in less than 1-2 years, that's just ridiculous.

I will say this for McCough, he got Crabtree who fell into his lap and also traded the 2nd round pick that ended up being Iupati. 08's draft was just pathetic, especially since he cost the 5th round pick to the Bears, but if N. Davis develops it will lessen the blow.

My 89 year-old mother would have drafted Crabtree...that was a no-brainer and had nothing to do with strategy...but, long term, it remains to be seen whether Michael Oher wouldn't have been a better pick for the 49ers...

I've been saying our drafts sucked for some time now. They both were horrible. With that said. You have to consider where Donahue had to pick as opposed to Scotty/Nolan. IMO Terry's best drafting was after the 1st round. While Scotty's/Nolan's were mainly just good 1st round picks.

I would give Scotty a C grade as he had as many winners as losers, not fair to compare him to Donahue who gets an F. Donahue and Joe Thomas (oops I am dating myself) were the worst GMs in 49er history, Scotty wasn't close.
